That is not an evil goblin from a movie. That is the Muslim Brotherhood leader in Jordan.

The Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan, backed primarily by local Palestinians, has stepped up its campaign to take over the Hashemite Kingdom and the Kingdom is responding in the usual ways by arresting top Brotherhood members and putting them on trial.

Jordanian authorities referred on Sunday a leading Muslim Brotherhood official to a military court for his alleged role in nationwide demonstrations against fuel price hikes amid a security campaign that has resulted in the arrest of dozens of Islamists, DPA reported.

According to a judicial source, Emad Abu Hattab, a senior leader of the Brotherhood’s political branch, the Islamic Action Front, was referred to the country’s military State Security Court on charges of “undermining the regime.”

Incedentally and all by coinkidink. The Muslim Brotherhood issued a threat a few months ago saying that if the King didn’t essentially give the country to them by Octobre they would start trouble.

Then in Octobre an Al Quada cell was caught red handed in Jordan planning terrorism.

Whut a coincedence!

But I thought they were completely different organizations! After all everyone knows they believe in using different methods to achieve the exact same goal!

Al Quada believes in using violence to achieve islamic world domination.

But on the other hand, the Muslim Brotherhood believes in using-

Al Quada.

See. One uses violence while the other uses Al Quada.

Two completely different, er, completely, um… words.

The Muslim Brotherhood Caused 9/11. If there was no Muslim Brotherhood there would have been no 9/11.

The Muslim Brotherhood subsidiary staged 9/11 in order to draw America into wars that would exhaust it- so then the Muslim Brotherhood could later stage a takover of the Middle East. All this was said all over the place by both librals and conservatives as a criticism of the Iraq and Afgan Wars. It is neither revelatory nor crackpot conspiracy theory.
